Softball requires biomechanics of body movements like locomotor, non-locomotor, sending, receiving, evading, coordination, and balance.
Explanation:
Locomotor movements like walking, running, jumping, leaping etc. helps a person to "move from one place to another".
Non-locomotor movements are axial movements flexing, bending, extending, rotating, swinging, swaying etc move certain body parts but do not facilitate any travel.
Sending movement include underarm or overarm throwing or striking and is done to throw or hit the ball.
Receiving movements like catching and collecting movements by the hand.
Evading movements like dodging, screening, or faking movements are done to evade the opposite player.
Coordination of muscles of trunk and legs along with motor coordination are highly necessary for playing softball.
Balance and stability provide proper stance for the players.
